WEDDING DAY BOOKING

How much is travel?

Travel cost will differ depending on the location.
Costs that are considered when travel is quoted are: fuel, wear and tear, time used, packing my kit and clean up.

TIP: If you have a group booking, travel cost can be divided and incorporated into individual makeup costs.

Do I pay a deposit?

A deposit is required for group bookings/wedding parties. The deposit will secure the date for you and ensure that if anything were to happen, income isn’t drastically affected.
Until deposit payment is received, a tentative booking is made, though your appointment is not 100% guaranteed until the deposit has been received.

Should I book a trial?

For the bride, a trial is highly recommended. It ensures we both know what to expect on your day.

TIP: If you have an event coming up, book your trial in. This will help us get an understanding of how the makeup will wear through the night and how it will show in photos.

WEDDING DAY PREPARATION

Should I get a facial before my wedding?

If you plan on getting a facial before your wedding, avoid intensive treatments within the month leading up to your big day. Other facials should be done no later than one week before your wedding. Treatments done too close to the wedding may affect how makeup sits on your skin.

Should I wear sunscreen before my wedding?

Yes! Get into the habit of wearing sunscreen 2–3 weeks before your wedding to avoid sunburn or peeling. This will help ensure your skin is in its best condition for makeup application.

Can I request changes to my makeup look?

Absolutely! If you require any changes to your makeup, please let me know in advance so I can bring the right tools and products to accommodate your request.

How should I prep my skin on the wedding day?

On the day of your wedding, avoid facial oils and thick moisturisers unless absolutely necessary. A clean, fresh face is the best preparation for makeup application.

I prefer to do the bride’s makeup first, giving her time to relax, gather her thoughts, and have more time for hair and dressing. Bridesmaids’ makeup will follow, starting with the maid of honour and then any other booked individuals. This schedule also allows time for necessary touch-ups.

1:1 MAKEUP SESSIONS

What are 1:1 makeup sessions?

1:1 sessions are designed to help you learn how to do makeup on your own face. Whether you’re looking for an everyday makeup routine or want to refine your skills, these sessions will guide you step by step.

How does the session work?

During the session, I will demonstrate makeup application on one half of your face, explaining products, tools, and techniques. You will then apply makeup to the other side of your face with my coaching. We will also use a face chart to discuss the application method, which you can take home.

Will I receive notes after the session?

Yes! After the session, I will email you a step-by-step guide covering everything we did, including the tools, products, and application methods used, so you can confidently replicate the look.

Can I customise my session?

Absolutely! Sessions are tailored to your needs and are priced accordingly. You can choose to focus on areas like contouring, eyeshadow blending, eyelash application, or everyday makeup techniques.

Should I bring my own makeup and brushes?

Yes! Bringing your own makeup and brushes allows us to discuss how to get the most out of your products. This also helps avoid feeling overwhelmed with too many new products introduced during the session.

COSMETIC TATTOO PRE-CARE

How should I prepare for my cosmetic tattoo procedure?

To ensure the best results and healing process, follow these pre-care guidelines:

  • Avoid drinking alcohol 48 hours prior to your appointment.
  • Limit caffeine intake to one drink on the day of your procedure.
  • Avoid exposure to the sun and tanning treatments one week prior.
  • Do not tweeze, wax, or undergo any treatments on your brows one week before your appointment.
  • Avoid taking blood-thinning vitamins, minerals, and supplements two weeks prior.
  • Refrain from using retinol or AHA products on the brow area two weeks before the procedure.
  • Avoid facials, including microdermabrasion, chemical peels, and laser treatments, for four weeks prior.

COSMETIC TATTOO HEALING & AFTERCARE

What should I avoid during the healing process?

Do not touch or pick at your eyebrows during the flaking stage, as this can interfere with the healing process. Avoid sleeping on your sides to prevent irritation.

What products can I use to soothe my brows after cosmetic tattooing?

You can use products such as:

  • Bepanthen
  • Vitamin E ointment
  • Vitamin D ointment

These will help keep the area moisturised and support proper healing.

How long does the brow healing process take?

The healing process typically takes 4–8 weeks. Here’s what to expect:

  • Day 1: Brows appear dark and defined.
  • Days 2–4: Brows may look even darker as the pigment settles.
  • Days 5–7: The skin starts to flake and peel.
  • Days 8–14: More flaking occurs, and the pigment may appear lighter.
  • Days 15–30: The colour begins to even out.
  • Weeks 4–8: Full healing is complete, and the final colour is visible.

Can I swim or go to a sauna after the procedure?

No, avoid swimming and saunas for 14 days following your treatment to prevent irritation and pigment loss.

Can I wear makeup over my brows after the treatment?

No, do not apply makeup over your brows for 14 days, as this can interfere with healing and pigment retention.

How should I cleanse my brows after the procedure?

Avoid using cleanser or shampoo near the area for 14 days. Before washing your hair, apply a layer of aftercare cream to protect your brows.

What kind of aftercare cream should I use?

Only use the aftercare cream provided or recommended by your therapist. Apply a thin smear on a clean fingertip morning and night for 14 days after gently patting the area clean with a cotton pad.

Can I get laser or facial treatments after my cosmetic tattoo?

No, do not have laser or facial treatments until the tattoo site has fully healed. To maintain pigment, avoid Vitamin A creams, cleansers, and acid-based creams on your brows for one month.

Will my brows change colour during healing?

Yes, colours will appear darker initially and then soften after 14 days. An emoji chart will be provided to help you understand the healing process.

Can I use paw cream on my brows?

No, avoid using paw cream on any tattooed areas, as it may interfere with healing.

What should I avoid touching my brows with?

Never touch the area with unwashed fingers, and do not pick at any dry or flaking areas while your brows are healing.

When should I book my follow-up session?

Please re-book your free perfection visit in 4–6 weeks after your initial session to ensure the best results.
